Key Capabilities
Android 14 Smart-Control Interface
The embedded Android 14 platform supports the panel’s intercom, alarm, information-release and compatible smart-building functions. It provides a modern control environment without positioning the device as an unrestricted consumer tablet.
Large 10.1-Inch IPS Touchscreen
The 1280 × 800 capacitive display offers more viewing and operating space than a compact indoor monitor. Its ultra-narrow black border helps maintain a clean appearance in modern homes, apartments and reception areas.
IP Four-Wire, Ethernet and Wi-Fi
The panel supports compatible IP four-wire architecture, wired Ethernet and dual-band Wi-Fi. This gives system designers several connection options, although the chosen method must match the complete Dahua door-station and power design.
Automatic Wake and Brightness Control
The screen wakes automatically when a person approaches, while the built-in light sensor adjusts brightness to the surrounding conditions. This reduces unnecessary screen operation while keeping the interface easier to view when needed.
Alarm and Building Interfaces
Eight alarm inputs, one alarm output, RS-485, USB and a 12V power output support connected sensors and compatible control equipment. Elevator calling and management-centre information release are also available within supported system designs.
Environmental and Expansion Support
Built-in temperature and humidity detectors support environmental display or automation functions. Listed expansion options include ZigBee, Bluetooth and 868MHz wireless-sensor modules for compatible project requirements.

Why Choose the DHI-SCP3044A-BZ
The DHI-SCP3044A-BZ is better suited to integrated projects than a basic call-only indoor monitor. Its 10.1-inch Android 14 interface combines intercom communication, eight alarm inputs, environmental sensing, management-centre information and supported building controls within one flush-mounted panel. Dual-band Wi-Fi, Ethernet, standard PoE and IP four-wire communication also give installers more flexibility when planning the network and power architecture. Automatic proximity wake-up and brightness adjustment make the display more practical for daily use without leaving it fully active at all times. Available through Security Wholesalers, this model is best selected as part of a complete designed system because legacy four-wire compatibility, elevator control, wireless expansions and third-party applications should never be assumed without verification.
Buyer Decision Tips
Four-Wire Compatibility Tip: IP four-wire does not mean universal compatibility with older analogue or proprietary four-wire intercoms. Confirm the door station, cable arrangement and power architecture before treating this panel as a direct replacement.
Android and Installation Tip: Android 14 supports the panel’s approved system functions but does not guarantee unrestricted third-party app installation. The panel is also designed for flush mounting, so wall preparation should be completed only after the device and cabling layout are confirmed.
